It was 38 days ago that I broke my arm on the racquetball court. My healing has gone well and I played again tonight for the first time in over 5 weeks. It felt good to be back on the court. Tricia and I played a match, and while I tended to take it easy [...]

I follow several football teams each fall at varying levels. This weekend, they all won!
West De Pere High School beat Oconto Falls High School 34-8 on Friday. St. Norbert College (where I work) beat Lake Forest College 38-6 on Saturday. Wisconsin beat Iowa 17-13. USC beat Washington State 47-14. And today the Green Bay Packers [...]

Crap, I broke my arm playing racquetball last Tuesday night. My wife Tricia and I play doubles quite a bit with Paul and Lisa Konshak. Well, Paul had just hit a hard shot against the front wall. I quickly broke to my right behind Paul to make my shot. But Paul was moving back and [...]

My daughter, Casey, and I went to the Packer game together tonight. The Packers played the Jacksonville Jaguars in their 3rd pre-season game. I’ve got to show you this cool photo. No, not the one over there on the right…the thumbnail below.
Early in the 2nd quarter, Packers rookie Desmond Bishop made a nasty hit on [...]

At 10:51pm central time tonight, Barry Bonds broke Hank Aaron’s career home run record in a game where the San Francisco Giants lost to the visiting Washington Nationals 8-6. Bonds hit his 756th career home run, and he deserves to be honored for that.
Though it’s not been proven, many people believe that he has used [...]

My wife and I celebrated 20 years of marriage last week. It was actually pretty low key, but we did manage to go out to dinner together, just the two of us.
What’s even more cool is that we played racquetball this week. You know when you have those times when you’re doing something nice or [...]

So today I got out of bed with a pretty nasty charley horse in my right leg. It hurt a lot, but got a bit better as the day went on at work. So I went ahead with my weekly racquetball match with Dean. As it turned out, the excercise really helped my leg feel [...]

In my weekly racquetball match with Dean, I got my tail handed to me on a silver platter. Dean won 15-5, 15-6. Holy crap.
I think it’s because the air conditioning wasn’t turned on in the courts, leading me to sweat more than normal, causing my grip on the racket to suffer. I had many shots [...]

I’ve needed to add excercise back into my life for quite a while now. So it made sense to get back onto the racquetball court. My wife and I used to play a lot when we were still in California. We usually played at Mile Square Park in Fountain Valley. She actually taught me to [...]

The Green Bay Packers stockholder meeting is next week, Wed July 27, 2005 at the Resch Center. Should be a great meeting. According to my notes from previous years, it usually lasts about 2 hours.
This year, after the meeting, all stockholders are invited to go a private practice for all rookies and first-year players. The [...]
